By train

You should stop at Florence Central Station, Santa Maria Novella. The Museum can be reached on foot in about 20 minutes.

On foot from Santa Maria Novella Station

Take via Panzani and walk, through via Cerretani, up to the Cathedral. When you are in front of it, take Via dei Calzaioli, the first street on the right, and walk up to Piazza della Signoria. Cross the yard of the Uffizi Gallery and, once you reach the Arno, turn left. The Museo Galileo faces the river, beside the Uffizi Gallery. Its main entrance is in Piazza dei Giudici.

By car

Exit the A1 motorway at “Firenze Sud”. As the historic city centre of Florence is a "restricted traffic zone" we would advise you to leave your car in the parking lot near the Santa Maria Novella train station and to proceed by bus or on foot.
